Here is a desk accessory that I hope will brighten your days
around christmas! It will let it snow on the desktop, i.e.
the area between windows. Set the desktop pattern to white
with the Control Panel for the best effect.
You can automatically start Snow at system startup by making
the SnowOpen (also included in the Stuffit file) application
the startup application.
Note: the snow will normally not appear inside windows. With
Multifinder however this does happen ocassionally, in inactive
windows. (Anyone knows where MultiFinder keeps its window lists?)
Also at times you may have a dead snowflake or Santa sticking
to your desktop somewhere. It won't harm you though.
Snow has a menu where you can set the number of snowflakes,
and whether or not you want to see snow or Santa at all.
Another option is to let Snow run under the Finder ONLY, i.e.
it won't snow while you're running an application.
Snow does slow down a Macintosh Plus considerably, but on
Macintosh II it is hardly noticable. With ResEdit you can
slow down Snow, thus leaving you a faster Macintosh by setting
the drvrDelay field of the DRVR. Authorized personnel only!
You may freely distribute Snow, but it is NOT public domain
software. I reserve all rights.
Share and enjoy,
-Rick Jansen.
